Trigger Action Adjustable Windows

monitoringlife

The 'execute an external program' is hard to work with.  There is only one line and the view into the box is tiny.  I have to copy/paste everything into Notepad++ to work with it.

    

    

     Would love to get one of these nice re-sizable windows the other frames have

monitoringlife​ I know some things often take time to become a native part of the product, but hopefully this tip will work, as well as hold you over until it becomes official. (If/when the time comes...)

Depending on which product version(s) you are running, you may need to disable the "pre-compiled web pages", which will allow you make the minor edit to one of the files in order to hold you over for a bit.

Disable Precompiled Web Pages; Making Custom Mods Great Again!

I believe that field is already a "textbox", so you should be able to simply enable the TextMode="MultiLine" option, as well as set the rows="10" option to get you a larger workspace there.

You will need to make this tiny edit in the following file, at/around line 13.

/Orion/Actions/Controls/ExecuteExternalProgramView.ascx

Here is a screenshot of using the two settings above.

And here is a screenshot of adding in the setting for columns="125", as well as adding a few additional rows (15).

As always, I'm no expert on anything, and I have no idea of the fallout this tiny little setting could cause. Please backup (and restore to test) before you make any changes.

Thank you,
